Boulder approves plan for two hotels

Boulder would get two hotels at the northwest corner of 28th Street and Canyon Boulevard under a plan that won unanimous support of the Boulder Planning Board, the Daily Camera reports.

The site is the current home of the Golden Buff Hotel and the now-closed Eads News and Smoke Shop.

Developer Scott Pedersen proposes a full-service, 184-room hotel and a select-service, 177-room hotel. The larger hotel would have its main entrance on 28th Street, while the smaller hotel would front 26th Street.

Pedersen is also proposing a 38,375-square-foot building on the site of Eads that would have room for offices, retail space and restaurants.
